2 Things:
1. Frosties are a much better choice than Magefists (40% more mana)
2. Its lvl 16 for a 1 to 1 ratio but if you are going that far, its worth the 4 extra points for the .75: 1 ratio (like getting 25% extra life)
Other than that, no complaints
you need the magefists for the objective FCR bp (86%) if you are using maras. if you are using something similar to a fletch (+2 sorc w/ 20% fcr) then you can of course use frosties instead, but i was writing this quide to be as widely useable as possible, because i dont know the dupes of any realms other than USEast.
im sorry, but the table i was attempting to post on the es/tk returns bonus seemed to become tangled in translation. please check
www.pvpwest.com and look under the sorceress stat tables. it lists 50:50 damage ratio at level 15

I don't like how you want to use ormus. Plus, you what skill do you want on it because it can't have orb.
you want ormus for the fcr & +3 ES (needed to get the 95% es sorb, unless you are using a 9 es memoryf for prebuff or are using a +4 es cta staff). personally, i prefer the idea of using a plain and common cta with a spirit for more life/mana and i really despise the idea of prebuff due to the length it adds in beetween duels.
im also experimenting with using fletch + btals and replacing 1x cold gc with a light for max es sorb, but it really lowers the damage dramatically. you have to remember that as opposed to light & fire, cold mastery decreases enemy resists, so +xx% cold damage is always more important than skills to your attacks. +20% cold damage is quite a bit more powerful than +2 skills on your orb damage. and also, again, ormus has the fcr you will be interested in if you dont want to use a duped amulet such as fletch.
